Context & Job Description :

As an IT Cyber Security Engineer, you will play a key role in protecting our organization’s information systems and data. You will be responsible for developing and implementing security policies and procedures, managing security projects, and responding to security incidents.

As our company and cybersecurity team are still small, we’re looking for a versatile, hands-on security expert—a true Swiss Army knife who is comfortable wearing multiple hats. You will act as blue team, red team, and purple team all at once, proactively defending, testing, and improving our security posture.

Our infrastructure is 100% cloud-based, spanning multiple vendors. To ensure robust security and scalability, we aim to process and automate as much as possible—from threat detection and response to compliance and infrastructure hardening. You will play a key role in designing and implementing automated security solutions that enhance protection while reducing operational overhead.

This role is perfect for someone with a strong technical background who thrives in dynamic environments, enjoys stepping outside their comfort zone, and is eager to explore new areas of cybersecurity.

Through this position you will report directly to our CISO, and work closely with:



  • The tech & product teams to help implement security best practices for software development


  • Greenly employees to investigate security alerts.

If you have a hacker mindset, a passion for security, and the willingness to tackle challenges across different domains, we want to hear from you!

Our Tech Stack :


  • At Greenly, we leverage cloud tools to architect and scale our solutions with agility.


  • Retool is central to our operations, serving as the foundation for building our main SaaS applications. This approach enables us to deliver user-centric solutions rapidly.

  • Our backend infrastructure is powered by Node.js and TypeScript, which provide the scalability and performance essential for our applications.

  • Data management is handled by Postgres, ensuring integrity and reliability. We uphold the highest standards of quality and efficiency through Datadog, for real-time application monitoring, Jest & Cypress, for comprehensive testing, and GitHub Actions, for efficient continuous integration and deployment.


  • Infrastructure: Our robust cloud infrastructure is built on Google Cloud Platform for scalability and reliability, with Terraform enabling infrastructure-as-code practices for consistent deployments. We leverage Kubernetes for container orchestration and automated scaling, while Cloud Run provides serverless compute capabilities for specific microservices.

  • Our security and compliance stack includes Vanta for continuous compliance monitoring, Kandji as our MDM, and Datadog serving as our Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) platform.

  • Support development teams in the design of the required security features 🔐

  • Train technical teams to integrate security into project management and development 📚.

Preferred experience :
